One can of pepper spray halted this march?

Some of their propaganda posters, which I notice oddly none of the guys in that video are carrying just signs with their logo, are actually kind of well done in that way you appreciate Soviet era propaganda or the like.


But others fall into that trap all extremist groups seem to, the true horseshoe theory, where there's like ten pages of text on the poster, like who has time or ability to read this shit when you're marching around or whatever I'm not Jay Garrick here:

Some people there are dressed if full militia gear with huge guns acting like they are the military or some shit.

I can only imagine the response if these were people of color.

Didn't last time this happen there was a massive counter-protest? What happened this time, just too sudden for people to organize?
That one was much smaller, just a few KKK dickheads. This looks huge.

As someone who grew up in and hopes to return to Charlottesville at some point, this makes me deeply sad and angry. This is not a bad town. It's one of the most liberal cities in the state. I wish they could've just gotten rid of the statues without bringing this shit down on them.

Hopefully more people show up to counter-protest today, and none of the counter-protesters get hurt.

Are these people out-of-towners descending upon the place over the statue, or are these locals? My feelings are going with the latter since they haven't had the audacity to show up anywhere else.

The "Only 41% of white kids are in public school" stat means it's not as liberal as you may think, unfortunately.
